Lisa, 150 is nothing more than the out of money strike price for a put to trade HKO index. Forget about HSI in relation to HKO index for a moment. HSI is like is like Dow Jones. HKO index trades like DJX index. So for example, 177 HKO must get down to 150 "strike price" on put before it goes in the money and theoretically the premium goes up point for point for every point HKI indx goes below 150. Fair to say that maybe 150 is TOO FAR OUT OF MONEY... Does this help for starters??? Keep asking, and I'll keep trying to help til I can't help anymore. JT

Lisa,

If I understand it correctly, the ratio between the index and the HSI is 150:1, and that the index mirrors the HSI but is not the HSI.

I could be incorrect.
